We’ve designed Riddle’s online quiz maker to make it easy to collect emails from your quiz takers.
And the best part? No coding is required – it’s super easy for anyone to get started.
The ‘Collect emails’ step
Let’s dive into the nitty-gritty:
- Create or edit an online quiz, personality test, or any of Riddle’s 15 types of interactive formats
- Go to the ‘Collect emails’ step
- Create your form
- Drag/drop the fields for each user to complete (name, email, etc.)
- Connect it to your email marketing tools such as ActiveCampaign, MailChimp, Google Sheets, and many more.
Collect emails – best practices
Some key points about using lead generation to collect emails in your quiz:
- Keep forms optional – Riddle forms can be required or skippable.
- We recommend keeping the skip option – you’ll get fewer, but higher quality leads.
- Mandatory forms just encourage people to give fake details so they can proceed to their results.
- Give a ‘can’t miss’ call to action – go beyond the ‘sign up for our newsletter’. That never works well.
- Provide a compelling reason for each user to give their information.
- Some good examples: ‘Sign up for a free 15 minute Skype consultation of your results’ or ‘Enter your details to get 25% off your first three months’.
- The fewer fields, the better – we’ve found 3-5 fields work best. With each field, you will see a drop in people filling it out. Typing on smartphones in particular  can be a pain, so only ask for the most important information you need.
Lead generation overview and video walkthrough
Now that’s a very brief overview of how to collect emails with Riddle’s quiz builder.
For more information – check out our blog post about using quiz lead generation with Riddle.
(Random factoid: A good quiz with a good call to action should get 35-45% opt-in rates.
The best forms offer a good incentive for the users like ‘Free 15 minute online consultation’ or ‘Win two tickets to X’.
